Kindness, the bedrock of humanity (poem)

10 Aug

Kindness, the bedrock of humanity

When Kindness gets lost amongst harsh words spoken today,
It has merely found a safe shelter where it can stay.
Within the patience of silence, kindness is living,
From within that shelter, kindness carries on giving.

Kindness has a strength that anger will never contain,
Beneath that dark storm of anger, kindness will remain.
For every storm must weaken, it’s words must run dry,
Whilst every act of kindness gives us strength to try.

Kindness is the bedrock of humanities strong heart,
Whenever a storm thunders in, it will soon depart.
Those rains of discord may tumble down, bringing us strife,
But the strength of kindness will bring back a better life.

So when life becomes muddy, with no peace anywhere,
Just dig into your heart, your kindness will be found there.
Sharing just a small piece of your kindness, makes it grow,
To join with others, bringing a better world to know.

An anti-negativity day (poem)

14 Nov

An anti-negativity day

An anti-negativity day, that’s what this day is going to be!
A day for releasing everything that has ever worried me.
A day for throwing out all of that inner sadness and sorry,
For I know full well that they will return, quite happily, tomorrow.
A day for doing pleasant things with only pleasant thoughts in mind,
To take a look around and see what enjoyable things I can find.
Perhaps I will just sit and rest, or at least that’s how this day will start,
Then maybe find an activity that will bring enjoyment to my heart.

Let’s just read the good news and ignore any bad bits there may be,
And leave it to the rest of the world to do the worrying for me.
A day of anti-negativity, taken just once in a while,
Will give my tired soul a rest, and a chance to do things with a smile.
For what does it matter if today is one of sunshine or rain?
I intend to search the good bits for some happiness to regain.
Let tomorrow come along well after the setting of the sun,
But from now until then, I’ll let this day be one of peace and fun.

Humanities Plea (poem)

27 Jul

Humanities Plea

Let’s abandon today and leave yesterday behind,
Run away from the future and step out of our mind,
Offload all the stress, remove the fragments of pain,
Unpack all our happiness and start living again.

Let’s fold away tension and tuck it safely away,
Open up childhood memories and learn how to play,
Wipe clear all that anger that blinds us from the truth,
Throw out that bitterness that destroys our inner youth.

Let’s remember that we are all just one human race,
That we all share the same world, in this time and place,
Let compassion and truth be our soul’s inner guide,
That confusion and fear, from our love, can never hide.

Let’s give out our humanity and share all our dreams,
Let’s repair the hurt, so it does not split at the seams,
Let’s hold onto harmony when clouds of hate rush by,
And hoist up the flag of love, for love can never die.
